The NHL decided not to discipline Toronto Maple Leafs forward Mikhail Grabovski for Saturday night’s incident with Montreal Canadiens forward Max Pacioretty after it could not determine if Grabovski bit his opponent.

The NHL’s decision came after interviewing both players and reviewing all the video and medical reports. They did not see enough evidence to indicate Grabovski bit Pacioretty.

The Canadiens had sent the league pictures of Pacioretty's forearm, according to John Shannon of Sportsnet.

The incident occurred during the third period of the Maple Leafs’ 6-0 win Saturday night. During a multiplayer tussle against the boards, Pacioretty had his arm over Grabovski's face. Suddenly, Pacioretty pulled away and showed a linesman he had been bitten on the wrist.

All the worse for Grabovski: The game was live on Hockey Night in Canada. Both players were given 10-minute misconducts.

"That doesn't belong in our sport," Canadiens defenseman Josh Gorges said after the game. "If you get in there, stand up for yourself, be a man, drop your gloves, and you'll have respect. But bite somebody? That doesn't belong in our league."

Pacioretty said he got a precautionary tetanus shot following the incident.

But as it turned out, the only mandibles in motion stemming from this incident were the players talking about it afterward.
